Consumer Description
At 104k miles, the check engine light came on and car was bucking and rattling while accelerating. Engine is malfunctioning and causing car to not accelerate properly by not going when gas pedal is pressed or rpm’s going higher than normal to just start driving from a stop. This is scary on highways or when stopped and have to make a turn or at a signal. Had a self mechanic run the check engine light which was spark plugs and coils and those are changed. He ran other tests and stated the cylinder compression was effected on the third one and is misfiring. Car is well taken care of and routine maintenance done. No inspection done beside this.
